Such language (that begins with “What the f…ck) is only reflective of how Alfonso was brought up by his parents at kung ano ang natutunan nito sa paaralan, kung meron man. Formation of values starts at home through parental nourishment and is enhanced in school. Obviously, kapos si Alfonso ng mga elementong ito that backfires at the parenting style of Albert and Liezl, sad to say.

Even more ironic is the completeness and strength of Albert’s family, na nakukuha pa ngang magpakatatag during Liezl’s battle with breast cancer. But with Alfonso’s behaviour, it’s even worse than a terminal disease that has killed the Martinez’s reputation!

But a trophy—I believe—does not just come in a sculptured piece made of wood or metal, or a combination of both. Puwede rin kasi itong maging “abstract token” as in the form of trust na ipinagkatiwala sa kanya noon ng kaibigang Dra. Vicki Belo na ginampanan niya sa Magpakailanman.

Walang kuwestiyon sa acting ni Katherine, she’s an underrated actress too big for small acting breaks coming her way. But a “sanitized” version of Osang’s life on TV would amount to fiction.

I am glad Alfonso Martinez say what he has to say…this generation is different, they don’t skirt around just because somebdy is a DIRECTOR, director of what? Magaling bang director ‘to? A period piece versus a comedy that does not make quite sense except for the word “INA” gullible na ang tao. If you happen to read the title fast enough, it sounds as if someone is ngamumura– I am sure his grandmother veteran actress Amalia Fuentes thinks the same way too! As we all know her, she has no qualms about stepping someone’s toes if needed be. Good job Alfonso! I am on your side.

Carrasco, your statement that ” A Mango tree does not bear Guavas ” is an insinuation that Liezl ang Albert have poor parenting style. This is below the belt. The kid’s behaviour does not necessarily reflect those of the parents.
There are a lot of personalities here in the US whose children’s behaviour are unacceptable. President Bush’s twin daughters are a perfect example. Both got drunk on a spring break. made an ass of themselves, caught saying the four letter word, BUT PEOPLE HERE DID NOT CONDEMN THE PRESIDENT AND BLAMED HIM FOR POOR PARENTING. . . . AND BY THE WAY, CARRASCO, I RECOMMEND ENGLISH 101. YOU SURE NEED IT. TATAGALUGIN KO. PAIKOT IKOT AND ENGLISH MO KUNO, PERO WALANG KAWAWAAN, ANG HIRAP INTINDIHIN. AT SAKA NAKAKATAWA NAMAN NA GINAMIT MO PA ANG MANGGA AT BAYABAS SA EXAMPLE MO. ININGLES MO LANG ANG KASABIHAN (GAYA GAYA KA) AT PINALITAN MO ANG APPLES AND ORANGES. WRITER KA BA TALAGA?

Agree ako sa sinasabi mong ang behavior ng mga anak does not necessarily reflect those of the parents. This writer should know this. And I can give you an example of myself. We have two children, the older child graduated Magna Cum Laude and very successful na sya ngayon and is making very good money and this older child never gave us problems while growing up. My younger child is very kind, sweet, loving and very helpful but my younger child gave us so many problems including trouble with the law growing up even with constant supervision from us and unconditional love and all the help we gave to our younger child and up till now our younger child has a very pathetic life. So does that mean that we are bad parents because our younger child made the wrong turn in life? Mr. Writer you probably would!!! But wait, we also have an older child who is very successful in life, does this mean that we are still bad parents then? No! A Big No! Children make their choices in life and parents have nothing to do with their choices. You can only guide your kids so much and after that, they make their decisions whether the parents agree or not. Kaya it is very dumb to associate parents for whatever wrongdoings their children make. Every person is an individual at maski how good a parent you are if you have a child na gusto lang magluko, hindi yon ma control sa parents. Just take my case, my older son is successful and my younger son is so messed up. Would you call me a bad mother then even when I have a very successful older son? Nakakaluka!

Exile totoo talaga ang sinabi ko sa anak kong ikalawa, ang tagal ng panahon pinasensyahan namin siya, with all the money we spent on counseling, rehab, unconditional love we gave him, we supported him thru thick and thin at dami ng kaibigan namin sinabihan kami na it's time to kick him out of the house na daw kasi matured na daw siya pero hindi pa namin kaya kasi we are hoping na maiba pa siya kasi may mga relatives itong hubby ko na ganoon din pero they changed so we are still hoping that our younger son will change. Ang older son namin napaka super mabait. Ayaw daw nya ng Americana na girlfriend kasi daw very western daw ang nalakihan na ugali, gusto daw nya ng wholesome with good moral values at God fearing daw kasi para daw mapamana daw nito ang ganitong ugali sa mga anak in the future. Exile napaka kuripot nitong older child ko pero kung birthday ko bibilhan nya ako ng jewelry na hindi ko type kasi ang pangit, pero sabi ng husband ko the important thing daw is the thought and love that counts pero sinabi ko sa husband ko nakakahiya naman isoot kasi ang laki at para tuloy akong naglakad na ipinagmalaki na hito ako hoy!~ ha! ha! ha! :). Mahiya ako. Yong husband ko ako daw ang nagpatagal ng buhay nya kasi whatever comes from my mouth he said it's funny daw. But going back to my younger son, I still love my younger son and if i have the chance to redo my life, I would still choose him as my younger son and i will not change a thing of my life. Oo nga pala ano? Open book na pala ako dito pero sigi lang. Kaya sometimes hindi ako matanggap kaagad kung mag apply ako ng trabaho kasi sabi daw ng husband ko sobra daw akong honest like yong tinanong ako ng employer during an interview if i ever had a problem with co-workers in the past. I answered the employer "Of Course!" I told the employer "wherever you go you meet people all the time that you don't agree with and I'm not sitting here in front of you pretending I did not because I have been in the past" And that's the end of that, I never got the job. My husband told me that the right answer would have been "I'm a very patient and tolerant person and you cannot avoid meeting people who you don't like but for as long as you are open minded and have patience and tolerance with people and issues, you will get along wherever you go". Yon ang sabi ng husband ko na dapat ko daw sinabi. I said whatever, so heto ako ngayon jobless, still looking for a job. he!he!he! :)
